Lyrics:
He's leaving (leavin)
On that midnight train to Georgia
(Leavin on a midnight train)
Said he's goin' back (Goin back to find)
To a simpler place and time
(Whenever he takes that ride, guess who's gonna be right by his side)
Oh yes he is

Great, great song! 🌹

I have a Gloria Jean like that!
You mean gloria in modern family?
so true!
🤣🤣🤣 one of my favorite Modern Family episodes
Hahahha love it
I was 5 years old, begged my mama for this album. I still have it. Im now 50.
I was 5 also...50 now, gonna keep on keepin' on...(God willing).

@@j.sheila7025 hi our world
Hearing this song makes me think about the good ol days around the house...my parents played this song quite often along with all Motown sounds! The Best!
I miss those days
May 2024 and we're still listening to this classic. 🫶🏽👏🏽
Today is her 80th Birthday.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Iam here in June 2024, home and listening to this beautiful music.❤
Whose still listening in April 2024. What a magnificent singer Gladys Knight is and the Pips are great.
Oh Yeap me too ❤
Oh yeaap me too ❤
❤ABSOLUTELY
She's performing (almost 80 years old) this year in Temecula
One 1⃣ can ever replace her ❤
Here, because it's my mother's birthday. She would have been 82. And this was 'HER" song. Love you, Ma....
Sorry for your lost.
So sorry
Sorry to hear that dude. May she rest in peace and her memory be helped by a gorgeous amazing song like this one ..her favourite..in this song she is remembered...trust me on that.......always
very sorry for your loss
sorry for your lost bruh. i can tell she was a sweet women by this being her favorite song. may she live on forever in your heart
If you find a woman who says "I'd rather live in your world than without you in mine." hold on to her as best as you can.
Right on friend
No more such women who say these words.
Tell him that
I agree 100%. Remember, though, that the guy in this song is a loser. "...some day he'd be a star (a superstar, but he didn't get far)" Dude couldn't even drive back because he had to sell his car, hence the train. If this song was autobiographical, what a loss it would have been for all of us.
That being said, I LOVE this song.
Edwin Luciano 🙄 never mattered anyway - she felt pathetic for loving a looser and was recovered in pieces and places
I can't think of a single person who doesn't like this song.
You're right about that 👍
@@mariogubo7919very true
I like this song 🎵🎶 🎼
My grandpa, who raised my siblings and I, passed away to this song as he was being taken off of life support due to complications from esophageal cancer. This was one of his favorite songs, and it is one of mine now. I’m forever grateful for him and I’ll always remember and cherish the music he showed me growing up.
Rest Easy Grandpa.🕊️🕊️
Job Well Done
bless his heart, he had great talent for music.
Why can't music be this pure, innocent and still convey every emotion, every sentiment, every feeling anymore?
Marie-Michelle The days are evil
Marie-Michelle true true. This was music. How to love a woman, not harm her. I mean this guy sold his old car, for crying out loud. Y’all
Becuase the purity, innocence and emotions are gone.
Duran jones mujer estan rifando
Sure girl
"I'd rather live in his world than live without him in mine." This line tears my heart out every time. Gladys Knight is a living legacy to what great music is all about.
This is the song for when someone you love dies. Soon it'll b us. Cheers!
@@lisbethbird8268 I can see that. Just change the lyrics a little. Let it read: "I'm leaving on that midnight train to Heaven. I'd rather live in His world than live without Him in mine."
So true ! Not to mention, the days when songs told a story and you understood what the singers were expressing. I saw Ms Knight in a show about 4 years ago. She is still amazing.
@@MVR326 Wow! I wonder if she's still performing now.
@@lisbethbird8268 Yes, I saw an ad not long ago that she was going to be appearing.
My Granny just passed away and we would listen to this in her car, I’ll forever attach this song to memories with her ❤ I miss her so much 1944-2023 🕊
@Kiera M. You keep playing this, and for you it will remind you of your granny, I still remember things I did with my gran….I lost her some 40 years ago, but i have the memories ❤
GBU mate
my condolences what a Great memorial to honour Her 🇺🇸♥️
Oh my God!!! Same dates for my dad who just passed.... Same song....
Qq
My grandmother told me to play this (our ancestors see and watch over us.
She just told me to let her hear her song)
She's passed on.
R.I.P I love you thank you
may she rest in peace
I’m very sorry 🕊️🌹

Which one sounded better to you (as short as it was)? Jay or Haley?

I'm 35 years old S.Korean and I still listening to this masterpeace in 2021. I think music has no borders, no races, no ages... Mmm seoul. I got to go.
That's the beauty of music. It's meant for all people to enjoy. As it should be.
I miss home too.. as a Thai..
Beautifully put...😉😊🎶
@@brananherndon6947 yess!!
Well said 💋
Well sung🎙️🎶🎵
🎼
35 years ago my wife left the only little country town she had ever known to be with me. This song reminds me of the level of love, devotion and trust that she had in me before I even had confidence in myself as a husband, father and man. Thank you Gladys Knight and the pipps!
Excellent!!
That’s beautiful 🥹
Thanks for sharing your lovely story!!
You might want to thank your wife as well. ;-)
@bobdobalina838 Every day my friend!
2024... possibly the greatest piece of music that we have come up with as humans...
Who else still listens to this song in 2019??
i do !!
Me ...
This guy.
Who doesn't?
I am
My parents would play this song on the record player during our Saturday morning chores when I was a kid in the 70’s. We lived in New Jersey then. Now I live in Georgia. 😎
That’s sounds perfect 😩😍.. I would’ve given anything to live in the 70s. I love the style and music!
Thought I was the only one lol
Did you move there because of the song? Loll 🤔🤷🏽♀️🤭
I love this!!
Same here!My mother would play songs like this on Saturday doing chores. Gladys, Diana Ross, AL Green...Good memories ❤
this was my wee wifes IRENE favourite song ,I HAD IT PLAYED AT HER FUNERAL ,MAKES ME CRY EVERYTIME I HEAR IT.
GodbBless you both

I was born and raised in Iran but my parents are Lebanese and Austrian. Listened to so much soul music and all these decades later now in America, it’s still my favorite
That's interesting.
Glad to have you enjoying the music 🎶🎵
I play this song every day. It's still a classic in 2023. Miss Gladys voice is one of the greatest, ever, in my humble opinion. Let me relax and put this jam on repeat. ❤❤❤
This song is so soulful. The lyrics, the voice, everything.
on my playlist STILL its been on it for @ least 4-5 yrs...NEVER get sick of it (pips arguably best backups ever)
Yes. You nailed it Allyson.

@@gspieler Thank you, Geri.
OMG! I sobbed like a baby when heard this the first time in 1970, driving from Ft Lewis, Washington, just back from Viet Nam after being in that hell for 15 months. I'M crying now, but I'm cool. God what a great song!
Thank you for your service!
John Thank you for your service!! Sing your heart out!!
GLAD YOU MADE IT BACK NOT MANY OF OUR BROTHER'S DID :'(
Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
God Bless you. Thanks for your service. I met this friend in Greece 40yrs ago, who did his service in Greece. He quit his service in the army. Only got to find out he passed away 2yrs ago. (2019).
Sgt. Glen Crenshaw. I salute you, very compassionate person. He moved bk to Georgia, from NC.
That's why I'm listening to brilliant Gladys knight.
Love & respect to you Sir, from England.
I’m only 16 but I wish I grew up in the 70s/80s 😭😭 The music was so good back then
ruclips.net/video/JcmylxQ0ma4/видео.html
I believe this song is from the 60s. I was born in the 70s, grew up in the 80s; the music was good back then, but not nearly as good as this.
Yeah but no
I know your mature
Nobody cares. This song this awesome but please shut up.
2024. I first listened to this on an 8-track that my parents had. loved it ever since.
From a time when music was REAL. No auto tune and no lip sync. Just pure TALENT.
Yes the good stuff. I remember when musicians harmonized together in front of a mic and played their own instruments
Amen brother 🙏
Perfect and real.
Real music!
So true. Love this music.
I’m an old white guy who was so lucky to hear this music as a young man . Today’s music rarely has the soul of this music. God bless you all
That’s the truth the music then had some meaning to it
Right on. 👍✌
And God bless you too.
Song was written by a whiteman.
@@akainyahazannekofi That wasn't the point..you fool
My mother and I use to listen to this song every Saturday morning and clean the house. She died of cancer. I miss you Birdie!
Her voice is beautiful without speaking, her smile penetrates the depths of the heart
Her voice puts me at peace
Because this was my mama song and Mother’s Day coming up this weekend….I miss you mama!
This Was my grandma's favorite song tomorrow makes 4 months since she passed and I truly miss her 😢 💔 I'm so so happy for everything she taught me and all of our memories rest peacefully Nana
💗👍💗
💔
😓🙏🏾❤️
sorry for your loss
My nanna died two years ago she raised me man I tell you there's not a day that goes bye that I don't think about her trust I feel your pain.✊
My dad loved Gladys Knight & the Pips when I was growing up, we played this at his funeral then afterwards we went for food and the same track started playing as we all sat down, pure coincidence but I'm taking it as a sign. A beautiful sign.
Amen. So sorry 4 your loss
Definitely a sign I would say !
No coincidence. Our God is alive, and He loves you, and He loves your Dad. Take comfort from the Comforter. You are not alone, and you were born for such a time as this.
Amen....... I don't think it was a coincidence! ❤🙏🤗
Happy 80th Birthday , Ms. Knight!
This is the kind a woman a man should marry.. a woman who says “I’d rather be with him in his world than be without him in mine”
I love the line "I rather live in his world, than live without him in mine." *sigh*
NicoleAvon beautiful song writing
Mom's favorite song.... RIP
❤️❤️
Powerful! A reality for most women
yep we have all been there
This is one of those rare songs where EVERYTHING absolutely EVERYTHING is perfect synched up and in harmony. The vocals, the back up, the instrumentals, the composition, the lyrics. Everything does its job perfectly. Gorgeous.
The version of the song is a masterpiece of the art of the sound mixer . This version is the official version and the sounds are perfectly mixed. Other versions recorded at live concerts, while they are good , they are way inferior to this official version. I.M.O.
This song gives goose bumps. It gets better and better as it progresses. Gladys killed it. You cant jam this on low volume. This is soul music for the whole house on a Sunday making brunch. Kids asking who is this and dancing along.
Fo realz
Well said. Just makes you float away.
@@munyamubaiwa4313 yes that's really it. The composition perfectly lifts you up.
Anytime I drove with my dad, he always said if you don’t have Gladys Knight then I’m good. Rest on Cowboy 1951-2022 ❤
I'm a 78 y6ear old man and I still adore this song - it contains perhaps the greatest love line of any song written- see if you can guess which one I mean....
“I’d rather live in his world than live without him in mine💔.
"By the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising" is pretty hard to beat
Going back to find
Going back to find
I grew up listening to this music.❤
The background vocals are worth the price of admission.
The Pips appeared without Gladys Knight on a Richard Prior TV special and performed this song. It was intended as humorous, and it was, but it also showed how well the backing vocal stood on their own.
The Pips are dynamite on this cut.
background vocals part is my sing along part :)
The bass line isfantastic!
Fantastic*
My mum has dementia and this is her song it makes her happy to listen to it ❤
Bless you and your mum.
💗💗💗💗
Hold on to the memories there like gold dust , I lost my mum in 2016 from this horrific disease god bless
🙏🏽❤
Lisa Gilbert play it loud for her lost my gpa to that horrible sickness
I rather live in his world, then live without him in mine that says it’s all. ❤
She’s misguided in love
I lost my husband John a few months ago.. He LOVED THIS SONG...I wish that there was a midnight train that could bring my Hunny back to me. ❤😢❤😢
@@LynnCraig-vl9vm I’m sorry for your loss may he rest in peace 🕊
Sending love and healing your way ❤️🩹
I KNOW HOW THAT FEELS....
They were fantastic song writers back then ,I'm 65 now, still sing an dance to these great songs❤❤😊
She doesn't just sing the song - she emotes with all off the feeling emanating from the depths of her soul
Dont forget the PIPS, best backups in the bus
That's what soul music is. Many have failed where Gladys succeeded.
@@alexortiz7446yes the Pips they're backups are epic the feeling they portray all captured and put it together in the studio so well
Yes, can listen all day to this song ,..........over and over.
❤
I had a Mama who introduced me to Gladys Knight in my youth...I am 36. RIP Mama, cancer took you too soon. You had amazing taste in music! Miss Gladys is a Queen! ❤️ (Loretta Lynn, Janis Joplin, Dolly Parton, Diana Ross...Mama had good taste!)
Add in “Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue” by Crystal Gayle
All great ladies
Your Mama was a classy lady.
Great musicians you mentioned there! Love your tasre :)
I feel you! My mama gave me the gift of loving different types of music. I saw Gladys Knight and the Pips in Richmond and I LOVED IT!
I used to love watching the various groups perform on the Ed Sullivan show. Gladys Knight and the Pips were one of my favorites.
As an adult, I would have dance parties in my living room with my besties. This was ALWAYS one of songs we'd re-enact. I was always The Pips. I know every lyric.
I wanted to be smooth like The Pips. Being Caucasian, uncoordinated, and not able to carry a tune never got in the way of having the time of my life.
The best of times.

A Lucky woman you are
This is one of the most soul stirring songs ever written recorded or sung by any artist in the history of music❤
My grandmother’s fave song... she passed and every time I listen I tell her to sing with me! 😢
Taryn Fonseca omg mines too! 😩
I have no doubt that she does.
that's made me choke up a bit
Mama T ❤️ I bet she singing and dancing God bless her soul(RIP).....and LIP to you (Live in peace) and have a wonderful New Year stay blessed and highly favoured🙏🏾
beautiful
Just an ol' white boy enjoyin' me some fine old school Soul...
Good choice old white boy
I'm right beside ya Craig,,,awesome stuff eh?😉
Amen brother. I miss Georgia. Great song.
Check out Stair way to heaven by the O’Jays
It was writen by a good ol' white boy Jim Weatherly after playing flag football with Lee Majors, Lee's girl friend
Fawcett mentioned that they were leaving on a midnight plane to Houston to introduce him to her parents for the first time. A few changes boom a mega hit.
Such richness from black gospel, the field songs, call and chant, sung with such level of authenticity. Amazing. Always loved Gladys and her Pips.
Takin’ it to Church.
Heartstrings! ❤
Written by a white guy, Jim Weatherly, and inspired by a phone conversation with Farrah Fawcett. But yes, this song is great and rich no doubt.
WoooWooooo! This is on my playlist for work (at a small liquor store). We have speakers outside too and when this song is playing, EVERYONE comes dancing across the parking lot and dance in the store! Happy people and great music make the world go round ❤
RIP Jim Weatherly, (Feb, 4 2021) songwriter of this amazing song, which originally was “Midnight Plane to Houston”.... thanks for the songs Jim!
I found the story of the inspiration for the song noteworthy: Jim Weatherly, a star QB at the Univ. of Mississippi, had a flag football league teammate in LA that he had become good friends with, actor Lee Majors, well before the Six Million Dollar Man. He called him one night, and his new girlfriend answered the phone, they had already met a few times so they chatted for a minute, and a not-yet-famous Farrah Fawcett said she was busy packing her clothes to take "the midnight plane to Houston". Jim said bells went off in his head as he thought "That sounds like a song title", so as soon as he hung-up the phone he grabbed his guitar and was finished writing and composing the song within 30-45 minutes.
Great information !! Thanks for posting that !!@
Let’s be real, midnight plane to Houston? Now that was never gonna fly😂!
My dad said that this was his moms song, and she would always play it. So whenever my dad listens to this song it always brings a tear to his eye. I never got to meet her because she died when she was 50, before I was born. But whenever I play this song, I can always feel a presence that comes into the room. I wish I met you Grandma Betty ❤
God love you girl ...
You wrote it so beautifuly. You have a good heart.♥️
Wowwww!!!! My name is Betty and I was named after my late grandma betty! It's also because of my grandmother that I am SO IN LOVE with this song anytime I hear it,(listening to it now) it takes me back to a simpler place in time..with my grandma so sorry u never met yours,I'm here to tell u..if u had/have a grandma name "BETTY" SHE WAS THE BEST!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My mom was a Grandma Betty and she loved Gladys & The Pips. Lived to 93 and was still driving.
RIP Mom❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I met and married my husband 24 years ago, moved him from his home in Georgia to California. This song and Dock of The Bay reminds him of " the home he left so long ago."
I’m here because of the lady that sings this beautiful song

Oh sorry for your loss
Be at peace
My deepest condolences. May this song bring you peace, comfort and joy! Be blessed! ♥️🙏
Those Pips were amazing.
I am 62 and still have a high school crush on gladys. What a magical family. Gladys night and the smooth dancing pops. When show business was filled with real talent and class.
The smooth dancing pips.
Oh how I remember my Grandmother singing this, snapping her fingers and stomping her feet. I love and miss her so much. I love oldies. Nothing can compare. Happy New Year's Eve 2021 ❤❤❤❤

@@JozieWales420 got back home yesterday 😊 thank you . Hope life is treating you well.
Having been born in 1948, I along with millions of people listened to the beat and the lyrics ... what a concept ... I am so grateful for the artist's of my time to be able to deliver a message with every song .... The combination of lyrics to listen and understand brought a deeper meaning .... Thank you to everyone who shared their story and message .....
Born in 67 and still loving it ❤
I went to LA to have a good time and ended up staying a while to end up finding out that California wasn’t for me, and just like this guy I went back to the south because this is where home is, thanking God for every experience!!
Me too.
Cali not for everyone. It's fast lifestyle.
If your not prepared for that, just stay down south. It's grimy up here
God I wish modern singers would have this much depth and passion in their voice as Gladys does in this song. Real music evocaing real emotions.
I agree and that is the reason music from the 60’s and 70’s will never be forgotten.
It does but it's no longer about the words, it's about depth. I mean rap was basically people talking to the beat.
But now we have rappers talking about their pain or trying to push genres to their limits.
If you need some music to check out I suggest: Thundercat, Denzel Curry, Break bot as some starters.
Well thats one of the reasons it's called soul music...just listen to modern soul music...but its still gonna be hard to match the Empress of Soul.
For me the duet of Alicia Keys and John Mayer had soooo much emotion in it...John Mayer sings with such emotion, but its Alicia who kills it in that duet
Yes Real good Today Not so real, to much tattoos!
She’s one of a kind - a gift 🎁 imagine someone like her on the tv show “The Voice” everyone would know it’s different and beautiful. That’s what we need more of. Less karaoke more singing from the heart.
This is/was my Mom’s fav !🙏🏿😇🎶
I'm here because, incredibly enough, Gladys Knight is performing tonight 04/28/2024 in Reno, NV.
I'd rather live in his world than to live without him in mine.
'I'd rather live in his world than live without him.' Absolutely love this jam💕💕💕💕💕
❤
I am to soul my music
....”in mine”. “I’d rather live in his world than live without him in mine”.
@@iwantthe80sback59 Does that help you feel good?
@@ThothTheAtlanteanK Doesn’t make me *feel* anything. Just posting correct lyrics for any one else who likes/loves this song.
Here because I just said goodbye to my almost 17 year old precious dog, George. I would affectionately call him Georgia, so I could serenade him with songs that have Georgia in the lyrics. He was my world. I love you boy.

Who is here in may 2024
I am! Relaxing with her songs.. ❤

Friday 3 March 2023. 13:43 in my office listening to good old soul music in Zimbabwe Africa. I went down the slippery blues slope when I started off with The staples singers (lets do it again). No regrets. This music is perfect. Setting the tone for a restful weekend. One love to each and everyone of you wherever in the world you are right now. Love and peace. #wutangisforthechildren.
Love back to you from Australia - this sing is a classic!
Back to from Louisiana, U S A
I love the backing vocals on this track. They are an important of the story in song. Such a beautiful arrangement!
Hoo!, Hoo!
@@SuperluminalGus Exactly - simulating the sound of a train AND of weeping simultaneously - absolutely brilliant. Almost hard to believe that this song was originally written and meant to be recorded as "Midnight Plane to Houston."
Amen. the Pips make this song just as much as Gladys.
Just heard this (again) yesterday and could not get it out of my mine. The Pips harmony is masterful, Woo Hoo is right.
out of respect for her voice i sing the backing vocals ;)
R.I.P MRS. KNIGHT LUV 💖 U! WILL BE DEARLY & HONESTLY MISSED! IM AN 83 BABY ! NOW THAT'S MUSIC REST N HEAVEN PEACEFULLY
She is still with us
I sing this to my man when I been drinking 🎉🎉😂😂😂
I was in my pre-teens, when this tune came out. I'm a white boy, from Kansas. This song hit a note in me, an always has. Party on, peeps.
Absolutely
I’m in Scotland and I grew up with this
..that’s it music ain’t got no color❤️
Does colour really matter. Am from OZ & here it's really not important. we are all part of this planet. Enjoy the music.
Yes party on !!♥️🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
A song that holds a very special place in my heart. When I was a kid and me and my dad would go on long drives together, we would always sing this song together. Me singing gladys knight and my dad singing the pips. He passed away 2 weeks ago and it now makes me cry to hear this song but it will always be a special memory to me 💖
prayers to U n Dad, Rest in Peace. thxxx 4 sharing
keep your head up
I'm sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family AMEN
When I was little my mum did her cleaning on a Sunday and she put music on while doing it. This was my favorite that she put on.
LLAURA KEEP STAYING STRONG.
My mother loved this
Awesome tune!!! 2024 and still rocks
The bass line in this song is superb.
Richard Thorpe Bob Babbitt played bass on this song, and said it’s the only one of hundreds he recorded that won a Grammy. He was very proud of it.
Sublime, truly.
I play bass,, for my hobby and passion,, working as an attorney at law over 20 years,, my son 21 just sent the song and said,, dad you will love d bass lines!!! Sure Yes,, will got going and no one, s going to stop the "midnight train"
Literally magic ✨
Babbitt signature 👌
I am absolutely stunned that this song is 45 years old. It is absolutely timeless. Gladys is beautiful and her voice is out of this world. And the Pips choreography can't be beat.
And their pre-emptive backing, fantastic, comedic, sarcastic and brilliant.
Ride on.
Rob M and I am only 35 luv it

I saw Gladys Knight & The Pips in concert when I was 18 in the 70's. I will never forget it, my friend and I had a great time.
❤🌺❤🌺❤🤗
Women don't think like this anymore about men! I'd rather live in his world than without him in mine!!!! Thank you Gladys Knight!!!
Fortunately, the generation you speak about, came after my time, lol, but it's not funny. They don't know what they're missing.
Jim Weatherly, the writer of this song, passed away today.
I came here to respect his craft. RIP.
RIP. Love this song.
Rest in Peace Jim, now writing songs for God.
Rest in Peace Mr. Weatherly!!! A respected man and songwriter!!😇🙏🏽
